The big news here today is that Isaac is sleeping in a bed! We weren’t really planning to move him into a bed on the first day of non-Daylight Savings Time, especially considering that he woke up for the day at 4:17 AM and was cranky and overtired, but he had other plans. When we went to get him after his nap, he was busy climbing out of his crib, cheerily announcing “I climb!” So that was that.

To our great surprise, he was completely unperturbed about the change in sleeping arrangements. When we put him down, he rolled around for 5 or 10 minutes and then got up. I put him back down and he rolled over and went to sleep. Much, much different from when Nora switched to a bed and required a week or two of 45-minutes-a-night returns to bed.

Of course, it could just be that he’s saving his rebellion for naptime tomorrow. I certainly hope not.

(Note: These pictures were taken this afternoon when we first moved the bed in there. We do not actually put our child down for the night in regular clothes).
